If you have more than one system, enure the other systems are bypassed to prevent any possible
problems. Open a faucet that is near the system, a laundry sink or outside faucet (if it will be treated by
the system) is ideal, this will allow the air to bleed out of the system.

open up the bypass
valve just to the point of allowing water to enter the system at a trickle, and leave it like that until the
tank is full of water. If you pre#lled the system it should only take a minute or two. Once the tank is full,
slowly open the bypass valve the rest of the way. Allow water to run out of the faucet for 15-20 minutes
to ensure all the air is worked out of the tank and o! of the , then close the faucet.

Check the system for any leaks, paying attention to the seal between the tank and control head as well
as the connections between the bypass valve and control head. Open a nearby faucet and check to
ensure there is no leaks that show up when water is running.
